Golden State Warriors
The Golden State Warriors have been in decent shape as they've won three of their past five games overall and they will be aiming for a third straight victory after blowing past the Grizzlies in a 121-101 road win last night. Jonathan Kuminga led the team with 29 points, six rebounds and four assists on 11 of 15 shooting, Stephen Curry added 20 points with six assists while Klay Thompson chipped in with 14 points. As a team, the Warriors shot 55 percent from the field and 11 of 29 from the 3-point line as they hit the ground running in this one, pouring in 33 points in the second quarter to take a 10-point lead into halftime and they just never took their foot off the gas, exploding for another 36 points in the fourth quarter to escape with the much-needed win. The Warriors will take on the Nets after this game.

Atlanta Hawks
Meanwhile, the Atlanta Hawks have been building nicely as they are now gunning for a fourth straight win after outlasting the Suns in a 129-120 win last night. Trae Young led the team with 32 points and 15 assists on 12 of 17 shooting, Bogdan Bogdanovic provided the spark off the bench with 23 points and five assists while Dejounte Murray tallied 22 points with eight rebounds and five assists. As a team, the Hawks shot 51 percent from the field and 17 of 44 from the 3-point line as they took it to the Suns in a tightly contested first half, before they pulled away late to secure their third straight win. Saddiq Bey had a rough game as he scored just two points on one of seven shooting before he left the game with an ankle sprain.

Warriors vs Hawks Prediction
The Warriors are still missing Dario Saric and Moses Moody, while the Hawks are without Saddiq Bey and De'Andre Hunter. These two teams met just over a week ago and it was the Warriors who romped to a 134-112 win and while I'm expecting a closer contest, I think the Warriors win again.
